Wrapped In Lettuce?!




I bought a small George Foreman Grill to see how I can utilize it in my new eating habits. But, I didn't know what to cook in it, so it sat on the kitchen counter for the last couple of weeks!

Last night, I stumbled upon ground turkey being on sale at our local market and suddenly, I thought of Mr. Foreman and his grill! I picked up a couple of pounds of the ground turkey and headed home. I was one step closer to trying out Mr. Foreman's Grill but didn't quite know what the next step should be. So, what did I do? GOOGLED it! I typed, "Turkey Burger recipe, George Foreman Grill". That's what I did. Lo and behold various links appeared before me in a flash including cooking video instructions on Youtube.... I am telling you, I L O V E Google and Youtube. I use them EVERYDAY!!!

Back to our story. I watched, learned, took notes and grilled DELICIOUS Turkey Burgers. I then wrapped one in lettuce and ate it with voracity and enthusiasm. Thank you Mr. Foreman!

Celebrating A New Ring Size!!!



A couple of years ago, when the shoe I had requested didn't fit me, I was surprised to learn that even your shoe size changes when you gain weight!!! Again, just four months ago, I was sadly reminded of that, when I could not put on the rain boot I had ordered online.

So, I have double cause to celebrate my recent weight-loss because a ring that I have been unable to wear for a couple of years, now, fits me JUST FINE.

Life is filled with little causes to celebrate. Isn't it?!
